Please join us on Jan 4 from 11:00 am till 1:00 pm at the Asbury's home, 1033 Crabapple Dr. in State College, as we celebrate with Miranda Fagan and shower her with gifts to help her prepare for the arrival of her sweet baby girl in February!

At the same time, the men will be meeting with Jonathan at Irving's Bagels downtown to share advice on being a dad, while they lunch together. If you require babysitting, please let Brea Asbury know at johnandbrea@yahoo.com. If you'd like to contribute to the group gift, please contact Sara Fillmann at sefillmann@gmail.com or 717-858-1572.

Tabletalk
January 2020
The January 2020 issue of Tabletalk will consider the will of God, focusing particularly on our calling and vocation. Calling is a broad word, and one question that Christians sometimes ask is, “What am I called to do?” In most cases, they are looking to identify the vocation that the Lord has for them. This is an important question indeed, but there is much mistaken teaching on this topic that offers little practical guidance, directs people to look in the wrong places for God’s will, or makes people feel like failures when they never seem to find God’s will for their lives. This issue of Tabletalk will seek to help Christians understand what Scripture has to say about God’s calling on our lives, how we can discern it, and how we can honor Him.
Contributors include Thomas Brewer, John W. Tweeddale, Joe Holland, Scott Redd, Fred Greco, Dan Thompson, J.D. Bridges, and Andrew Kerr.
Your copy is available on the Resource Table in the lobby (near nursery entrance).

Greetings from MNA SecondCareer!
Hanover Valley Presbyterian Church of the Susquehanna Valley Presbytery, is seeking a volunteer with Wix database experience. Assistance is needed in the process of migrating the church website to Wix by creating a database for the site. The volunteer is not responsible for developing an entire site, as there is a volunteer who maintains their current site in Squarespace, but needs help coding some specific functions related to the Wix database function. This can be done virtually and will likely be for a short duration. Maybe you or someone you know would be able to serve in this way. Anyone interested in this opportunity to serve should contact Barbara Campbell, MNA SecondCareer Facilitator, at bcampbell@pcanet.org or 804-339-5005. MNA SecondCareer matches PCA adults of all ages with PCA church planters, churches, and other ministries with limited resources.
